letra de something old (the wedding dress song) - susan levine

[verse 1]
one second today i was alice
the looking glass came to grab me
and i cursed at my own curiosity
but i went like a moth to a flame
in sepia tones in a sepia dress i look like my mother, and i lay down to rest
to rest

[chorus]
and i feel like i’m home
but i feel like i’m nowhere
with my feet made of stone
tell me how will i get there
and i feel just like dorothy holding tight onto toto
and i cl!ck my heels and i close my eyes
and i pray to god i’ll someday know i was there

[verse 2]
for one second today i loved you
so much that i shivered likе a streetlamp
and i clean the house, and i shavе my legs and i thought that i could cue a steak
and i check my hair and i check the time
and i took in your heart
and i thought it was mine
yeah i thought is was mine
you didn’t ask for it back
[chorus]
and i feel like i’m home
but i feel like i’m nowhere
with my feet made of stone
tell me how will i get there
and i feel just like dorothy holding tight onto toto
and i cl!ck my heels and i open my eyes
and i’m looking right at the scarecrow and i tell him he’s smart
but he shakes his stuffed head and i lie on his body and it feels like a bed
just like my bed

[verse 3]
for one second today i was grown up
patterns of patterns and bases for things
then the dog ate the house, the cat chewed a mouse
and the dish ran away with the ironing
and my mothers white dress is now yellow at best
but it still breaks my heart
something old
something old
something o-o-old

[chorus]
and i feel like i’m home
but i feel like i’m stalling
and i feel all this gravity
and i’m falling, falling, falling
and the speed of light meets the speed of sound
and i crash in your arms and you turn me around
and we try to take [?] that big balloon
but now i’m a lizard and i promise me a [?]
so i close my eyes but i can’t keep the shoes
and the scarecrow is crying
and i’m losing my cool
[verse 4]
so then there is the end of that movie
she finds what she’s lost in her yard
but no one believes you’ve been anywhere
the tornado [?] them too hard
but she’d seen them there though she’d hit her head
and the black and white feels somehow right
as they come around her bed
yeah they come around her bed
auntie [?] everybody
uncle henry and z

for one second today we were happy
so much that we laughed til’ we cried
and one second turned into forever
forever
forever
